malwarebytes slowing down computer

I just had to shut down malwarebytes, my computer has started running very slow and task manager shows it using a lot of memory. I ended it in task manager but it started up again. I am going to turn it off but am a little nervous about getting malware. I have read there are some problems with it, is this one of them? I have a new Dell laptop and am running windows 10. Also, is there a way to turn Cortina off? Not sure I need that either!

I shut down the protection but it keeps restarting itself - task manager shows it taking up CPU ad memory again. Do I need to uninstall?
